Organic Hemp Seed Hearts

Organic hemp hearts are hulled seeds with a subtle, nutty flavour and a distinctive chewy texture. Packed with protein and fatty acids, organic hemp seed hearts are what nutritionists call a superfood.

Not only are they one of the only plant-based sources of complete proteins, but they are also rich in GLA (Gamma-Linolenic acid) and SDA (stearidonic acid), essential fatty acids used by the body to regulate hormones, reduce inflammation, and support brain health.

As a high-fibre food, organic hemp hearts are also known to boost the immune system and regulate digestion. You can sprinkle hemp seeds on top of your salads, mix them into your pancake batter, or bake them into your favorite desserts to enjoy their many benefits.

Garnishing your soup or breakfast cereal with a few tablespoons of organic hemp seeds is a quick, easy way to add loads of nutrients to your diet giving you the raw energy you need to take on the day.
